OV-104 (cn OV-104) Shuttle Atlantis sits on Launch Pad 39A (foreground) with Endeavour in the background, in preparation for STS-125, the final mission to service the Hubble Space Telescope. Endeavour is to be ready to launch as a rescue shuttle within one week of Atlantis, as this is the only post-Columbia shuttle mission not going to the space station. It is the last planned time two shuttles will occupy the pads at the same time, and only the third time ever both are visible with launch towers retracted. |

OV-103 (cn OV-103) The day before launch, I chatted with the guy in the Snack Mobile. "I saw the Columbia's lift-off from here; but, they've never come back. Shuttle does have to come back because we are always waiting for them to cheer," he said. I was moved. Yes, those who have someone waiting for you with cherished love are beautiful. People who have the place to come back are wonderful. In the America's Spaceport, the truck represents my feeling toward the seven bravest astronauts. Go Discovery! We are behind you!! |

OV-103 (cn OV-103) Many journalists and photographers flock in front of the Launch Pad 39B to watch the service structure roll away from Discovery at 11:00 pm on July 12. It was truly a stunning moment when everyone was anxiously waiting for. As the initial launch attempt in the following day had been scrubbed because the fuel sensor in the external tank did not work properly, it finally had launched on July 26 -- the first Space Shuttle mission since Columbia's disaster 2 1/2 years ago which left the entire fleet grounded. |
